This is one of those opportunities citing Olivia Philosophe and Dr. Dylan at Boston Veterinary Clinic in Brookline," BVC". Olivia is a technician at BVC when we first met her our boy puppy at the clinic emotionally connected with her. They instantly bonded and he trusted her without any reservations. Is a true natural. She examined our puppy, and her skill sets as a veterinary technician became obvious. Our puppy was extremely calm and allowed her to examine him without any resistance. Olivia's personality and persona is a natural gift for animal in her care. Concurrent with Olivia Philosophe initial and from our perspective made Dr. Dylan's complete examination easier. Our pup immediately bonded with Dr. Dylan because of Dr. Dylan's "bedside manner" which resulted in our becoming strong advocates of Olivia Philosophe, Dr. Dylan and Boston Veterinary Clinic Brookline.

My two cats have seen her multiple times each until we finally asked them to put a note in our chart that we wanted anyone but her. When we asked questions about one of our cats eyes, she simply could not give us an answer and instead tried to refer us to a cat eye doctor. Note that he simply has a bit of a watery eye and another vet in the practice was able to answer all of our questions. Dr. Gallagher was rude and dismissive on multiple occasions. I'm grateful BVC has other vets whom we love!

Every morning they are open there are lines of people waiting who on them because no one else in Boston helps the community like they do, let's be honest. Just compare it to anyone.

    You get what you pay for. Vaccinations are not free; the medication itself starts at thirty to…read moreforty dollars and they take cash only for payment. They provide a free brief exam and medical advice. No emergency care is provided. If you have been seen there before for vaccinations, keep the documents they give you. You will need them for your next visit. They keep a record of your pet's visits, which consists of an index card with pet information and services provided. There is a limit of twenty-five pets seen per day. If you get there after 8:00 AM, there are already twenty-five people there, and you will not be seen. There is always a line and it starts at the side stairs, not at the front door of the building. I made the mistake of using the front door entrance and was sent to the back of the line, which was on the side of the building that I did not know existed. Cats have to be in carriers and dogs have to be on leashes. They ask for a donation.

    Our veterinarian, Dr. Scott Groper, is truly an amazing individual. He has so much knowledge and…read moreexperience... honestly, I don't think I could trust my pet with anyone else. I've had three dogs in my lifetime all of which have been a true privilege for me. What I appreciate most about Dr. Groper is his straightforward approach to most everything. He doesn't overcomplicate appointments, fill them with unnecessary information, try to sell you things you don't need or anything even close to that. He listens, explains what matters, gets to the point and solves the issue. It's that simple. I have a French bulldog, so trust me it's not that easy at times, but he makes it seem so easy and my pup is as healthy as he can be. It is truly astounding. However...Just as important, he genuinely cares about the pet patients he treats AND their families. He personally follows up to see how they're doing, which says so much about the kind of veterinarian and person he is. All I can say is that he cares truly cares and that's all that matters. It's rare to find someone who combines this level of knowledge, common sense, efficiency, and genuine compassion. I trust his judgment completely and feel incredibly fortunate to have him caring for my pup. I truly could not recommend him more highly. He's the man!!! He's our veterinarian... and we're so lucky. Thank you Dr. Groper!

What kind of vet are you? Not knowing this i brought my dog home within two days my dog had nearly stopped peering, she was leaking bowel excretions and started bleeding. I rushed her to the wonderful vets in worcester who sad my dog was critically ill and they got her cleaned out. She had 10 days of antibiotics with pain meds. NEVER GO HERE THEY WILL KILL YOUR PET!!

From the first call to the ER to the discharge, everything was professional, caring and timely. Dr. Toal was simply amazing and my cat Glenn is fully recovered. She was so kind, knowledgeable and compassionate, and took time to explain everything in a way that was easy to understand. Patrick & Willow from the overnight team were also terrific and their communication was helpful at a stressful time. Thank you for everything, I am so grateful for your team. What I appreciated most about Angell is the coordinated communication, level of care, and the staff's kindness and professionalism.

    MSPCA IS HORRIBLE. I WILL NEVER REFER, ADOPT, OR TAKE AN ANIMAL TO THEM…read more WORSE ORGANIZATION FOR ANIMALS. THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE ANIMALS. SAVE YOURSELF THE HEARTACHE. I will NEVER adopt from the MSPAC again. I adopted a frenchie from Nevins Farm a year ago. They told me that her salary gland was leaking into a pouch on her neck but that she was fine. That if it turns hard it will need surgery. But assured me it was not a "real" problem. Now its hard. Causing discomfort. Affecting her eating. Current vet can't do Sialadenectomy surgery because to close to juggler and judging by his shaking I think he has Parkinsons. Other vet wants deposit of over $7300 just to schedule Sialadenectomy and price to increase during surgery. Called MSPC Angell in JP to ask if they could help and do Sialadenectomy for less since their doctor at Nevins Farm caused the issue pulling teeth before her adoption. (Problem is not on her intake form but is on adoption forms so injury happened w them.) I was told no. They need to $265 for evaluate to see if she needs Sialadenectomy even though 2 other vets said she does. Surgery will be well over $6500. Told me I am to pay full price but they accept financing or I can put it on a card because its so expensive. The woman literally laughed at me. Audibly laughed at me. This poor dog will probably be put down because pet insurance wont cover it. (pre- existing condition). Her current vet can't do it. Can't find a vet who actually cares. MSPCA won't help even though they caused it. And I dont have thousands to pay for what she needs. Heartbroken. My poor girl.

One time I was sent out to Acton to get a root canal done on my cat. When I got there, the dentist there said it couldn't be done and she just extracted the tooth. For $1,000. I got referred to another place in Chatlestown for something else, because their relationship with the people who had been doing onsite had fallen apart. That one cost me over $1000 too,for something I was told would cost around $250. When I came in for the last few visits, nobody ever seemed to know why I was there. There seemed not to be communication or professionalism. Their prices were exorbitant, too! I really regret not having switched to my current vet sooner.

Then we found this place always has a spot because of some reason... when we go into the place and meet the vet, she doesn't even look into my dog in detail but keep telling us "your dog is under great pain". While at the meantime, my dog is enjoying the treats and looks chill... then the doctor give us 5 bottle of medicine and tell us our dog need them for "anti-anxiety", which actually scares me because my dog never takes that much medicine even after the spay surgery. By the time I told the doctor that I don't want to take that much medicine, she suddenly becomes angry and keeps repeating "your dog is under great pain and this is the worst case I've ever seen in my whole career ". I know how my dog react when she is pain and it's definitely not the case. After leaving this clinic, I when to 5 more vets including emergency, all of them told me that my dog's teeth is not a big deal. Which proves that the doctor in this place is just a lier and trying to push me to pay for the medicine. I chose one of the other vet place to do the surgery and my dog is healthy and happy now. Once again, please avoid this vet and find somewhere else. Your dog deserves better rather than these unprofessional doctors who try to drug your dog and steal your money!!!
